updated meHello and thank you for your continued interest in Naturopathic Medicine where getting to the root cause is the answer to a healthy life!

Many have trouble losing weight and one place I look for the underlying cause is in a blood test for fasting insulin.  Here are the details!

Enjoy!
Can't lose weight and don't know why?

 

 What are some of the underlying reasons?

  • Poor diet choices
  • Eating more calories than you are burning
  • Insufficient thyroid function
  • Hormone imbalance
  • Eating foods you are intolerant too 
  • Taking prescription medicines with weight gain as a side effect.  Commonly birth control, anti-depressants, steroids. 
  • HIGH FASTING INSULIN  

What is insulin and what does it do?

  • Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas in response to an increase in glucose in the blood stream
  • Insulin lowers glucose to a normal level.  A normal level of glucose in the blood equates to about a teaspoon. 
  • Insulin triggers the body to STORE GLUCOSE AS FAT
  • Insulin triggers the body to make cholesterol 

 

So how does insulin cause a problem for us?

  • When we eat higher carb meals or snacks consistently, insulin begins to increase its baseline amount (fasting insulin)
    • It makes sense, if you wear out an organ (pancreas) by working it too hard (eating too many carbs) then it eventually can cause diabetes by giving you high blood sugar.
       
How do I find out if I have this problem?
  • Ask your doctor to test your fasting insulin
  • Fasting means no food, only water after midnight the night before the test.

How do I lower my fasting insulin and get into the FAT BURNING MODE? 

  • Eat protein and vegetables (give the insulin producing cells in the pancreas a break!)
  • Have nuts, seeds, veggies or a piece of fiber-full fruit for snacks 
  • Take chromium picolinate to help insulin do its job better and reduce carb cravings.
  • Give it time
    • It can take up to a year or more for the pancreas to heal and lower to optimal levels

DETOX INTO A NEW YOU

The program that took Australia by storm is now in the US!!
I am pleased to be one of the few physicians trained in this method steth and herb of weight loss. ULTRA LITE, developed by a Naturopathic Physician, teaches you how to eat right FOR LIFE.  After you do this program you will ALWAYS know how to lose weight by eating healthy.

hCG is all the talk these days.  This diet is not for everyone.  i conduct a thorough screening, including lab work, before patients are selected for this program. 

The hCG weight loss protocol consists of a very low calorie diet accompanied by treatments of hCG,  injected.  The average hCG dieter experiences rapid weight loss averaging 1 to 3 pounds per day.  In addition to loss of unwanted fat, the true benefit of the hCG protocol is its ability to help modify the dieter's relationship with food and eating, resulting in easily maintained, long-term weight loss.


By avoiding refined carbohydrates and sugar, and limiting excess carbohydrates you will maximize fat loss as your body will instead burn stored fat, providing energy through natural ketosis.

Research shows that the #1 factor in how much weight is lost and how much is kept off - is Physician monitoring.
I would love to talk to you.  If you would like, feel free to call and set up a phone consult, free of charge. 
 
To your health!
